  • The concept of "unlearning" has captivated me.

    As a constantly evolving entrepreneur, I'm always on the lookout for new ways to improve. Barry's approach to "unlearning" has particularly intrigued me. I am enjoying each episode while editing photographs (I’m a professional photographer) and handling various maintenance tasks for my growing portrait business. Looking forward to listening all the episodes. Thank you, Barry.
